Caregiving in the US -2009 Statistics

Are you a caregiver or know someone who is? Caregiving for another person, whether it be a child or adult can take a great amount of physical and mental energy. The stress of being a caregiver is sometimes overwhelming. The latest statistics that I am able to locate on this topic is found at the above site. Even though it dates back to 2009, it provides very detailed information for those who want to learn more about this topic. The research was conducted by the National Alliance for Caregiving, in collaboration with AARP. It was funded by Metlife.
